The BULLET that could...
by marglenna ,Apr 19 '06
Pros: Does it all! Cons: Wish it had more cups and larger cups.
This thing is GREAT! Everyone is saying that it pulverizes things, but in the handbook, it clearly states that you have to "pulse" the container - not hold it down. You can gauge the level of "chunkiness" (not sure if that is a word.....) and go from there.
It's a neat little gadget!

All this product is is an expensive smoothie maker because that's all it's good for.
by foxylexncarmy ,Aug 26 '06
Pros: Well, it's powerful Cons: ...so powerful that it doesn't chop, it LIQUIFIES - yuck.
I have had zero luck with this. The first thing I tried making (looked easy enough) was some salsa. I followed the recipe to the letter, and pulsed it as told to, and what I ended up with was a foamy looking cupfull of liquified slop. Right down the garbage disposal. You can't use this to chop vegetables, the water content in them leaves you with a soupy mess. I'd like to know how they made real looking salsa in the infomercial, the veggies they used must have been plastic.
If you want to make something that is SUPPOSED to be liquified (like smoothies), then it's fine.

Baby Food Blunder
by jenhere ,Sep 20 '07
Pros: Looks Good, Friends Love It Cons: It NEVER Worked
I bought this product at Target for $58 to make baby food. All of my friends with babies swear by it. Well, guess what, I read the instruction book, got the stuff washed, put in my ingredients and when I pushed it on, nothing happened! I bought a dud....I heard something rattling around inside the motor part, so I am guessing something happened in shipping. Funny thing was, there were two of them at Target and the other box looked like it had been returned so I bought this one! I can't imagine how mad I would be if I had purchased it over the phone and it was shipped. I might end up just getting my money back...

More like Magic Plastic Chips...
by cyberglobe ,Jul 22 '06
Pros: handy and fast but... Cons: Plastic in food, Blades Ceases, plastic taste after microwaving.
If you enjoy eating plastic, this machine is for you.
This product could have been good but the problem with the whole system is that it is made with cheap plastic and looks like it was molded by a child.
First, the issue I had was that the blades ended up touching the plastic and chopping it up with the food I was preparing. The company could have made sure there was plenty of sidewall room for the product.
Second, The blades ceased up after 3 uses and ended causing the motor to smoke.
Third, I would recommend them using Glass instead of Plastic as when you microwave the product, the plastic taste does not come in your food.
I would not recommend this product until they fix the above problems with this product.

DONT BUY THIS ITEM
by debzeg ,Jul 24 '09
Pros: NONE Cons: Yes, it is a con
Cheaply made and what a customer service nightmare when trying to return. Cost almost as much to get a refund as it was to purchase! Maybe I should have just kept it! Buyer beware!!!

Don't waste your money
by julieinfrance ,Feb 24 '06
Pros: sauce or dressing mix well Cons: pulps things to a mash
After watching the infomercial I thought 'I have got to buy this product'. It arrived, I tried it and it now gathers dust on the shelf.
It is a complete waste of time bar everything except mixing sauces (and how often does one do that!). Just buy yourself a decent food processor and forget this.

The Magic bullet is everything they say and even easier then that!!! I received my as a gift, but would buy more for gifts to give to friend and family. It is the one gadget that no kitchen should be without!

They make it looks so easy
by karenlgilbert ,Jun 25 '06
Pros: Comes with some good recipes. Cons: Cost more than a conventional blender but does about the same amount of work.
I am not too thrilled with mine. I spend a lot of time shaking and blending, shaking and blending. My ingredients seems to get all clumped up. I truly feel that it is as good as any other conventional mixer/blender.
I have done everything in a conventional mixer/blender that I have done in the Magic Bullet.

Poor quality construction
by kitcheneer ,Jul 29 '06
Pros: Has small cups for grinding small amounts more effectively than a typical food processor. Cons: Poor quality materials. Broke in a couple weeks.
It worked OK as long as it lasted, which was a couple weeks. The plastic is poor quality, and the tabs on the blending cups broke. These tabs act to depress the power button and lock the cup in place. I worked around it, until the gear mechanism broke and the blades wouldn't spin. Finally threw it out. Don't even think about service.

Great Little Machine
by redritz ,Jul 29 '06
Pros: Simple, Easy to Clean! 2 most important things in my book. Cons: Plastic. Cannot seem to buy items separately
I have had my Bullet for a little over a month now. I am very pleased with it. It is small and simple. Easy to clean! Quick working. I use mine mostly for smoothies and protein drinks for my husband and myself. Add your solid ingredient's first, then cover with liquid, start your machine and walla! behold! Your beverage is ready. Already in a drink cup, no pouring. Rinse the blade, the cups rinse easily too! I am glad I bought the Magic Bullet and would recommend it to others.

Magic Bullet Food Processor, it the Magic
by zipporah1703 ,Mar 14 '07
Pros: There is not time to figure out the pros Cons: nor........the cons
I have at least 3 processors. Nothing is as convenient and hands on as this product. I am almost lost without this this Magic. I was so sceptical to buy it, you have to have it to believe it. Thank you so much for this great product. It saves me so much time and it cleans so well.

Don't buy this!!!!
by martino1969 ,Jun 27 '06
Pros: works great for the first month... Cons: Made very poorly and will not last a year
Saw all the ads and demos so I bought one...
Worked great at first but the mechanism that turns the blender is made of a cheap rubber that wears away. After using this for 6 months it suddenly just fell apart.
I could not get parts for this or my money back...
Last week I bought $19.95 blender and a $9.95 and these do the same jobs as the Bullet
Save your money and don't buy this over-hyped disposable piece kitchenware!!!

Great, if 3 months of smoothies is considered great.
by aaron_gourley ,May 16 '06
Pros: Very powerful. Grinds frozen fruit and ice cubes with ease. Good concept. Cons: Poor design, blade turning mechanism too frail.
The Magic Bullet was received in the home with great acclaim and expectation. At first, it performed outstandingly. It made delicious smoothies and liquid mashed potatoes. After about 3 months, key parts started to wear rapidly (plastic piece in the base that turns the blade, and rubber piece attached to the blade).
